Anti-virus?

[ummmmm53]

Yes, I know mac's don't have many viruses yet but it's only a matter of time before viruses are created for them so my question for those of you that do use an anti-virus/spyware is which one do you use? I would prefer a free program but I dont mind paying a bit if its worth it.

Ya I use a light anti-virus, but instead I just have a gnarly firewall that pretty much blocks everything

 

[Caveman.]

Is a router as effective as a software firewall?

 

[jmason]

^yes. That's what I have as my firewall. they're soo steezy. And the advantage to it being on the router, is that any viruses or whatnot never actually even make it to you compter... whereas if it was software, they do, and just get pushed back out. understand?

[Literature]

Yeah, I have it too.

i use to use norton anti-virus for 8-10.1 not bad but u don't really need it and i just deleted it since it just took up space but norton also can erase your hard drive and erase the free space on your hard drive
